Return from the mini-hiatus

Return from the mini-hiatus published on No Comments on Return from the mini-hiatus

Hey readers! My sincerest apologies for the delay in updates. I have recently picked up some full-time work (which I’d love to talk about, but I really can’t just yet) that has been taking up more of my day than I realized. I am really enjoying working again, and hopefully it will turn into a long-term thing. Until then, I’m re-adjusting to a new schedule and working my way back into my comics routine after my holiday break. Fear not: no matter what happens, I have absolutely no intention of giving up on the comic. The schedule may hiccup from time to time, but no matter what the comic will continue. If there is the likelihood of an extended break, I’ll try to post as far in advance as I can.

I’m planning to leave the 2010 Wallpaper Pack up for the remainder of February, or until I have the time to come up with a new donation wallpaper. It’s really a great deal for what you’re getting, and will help to keep the comic going. (And keep me alive until I see a paycheck!)

That’s all for now. Thanks for sticking with me! Follow @radio_chio on Twitter, or the RSS feed here to receive updates as they happen!

And that’s the end.

And so Chapter Seven ends. And Eldora is still alive. For now? Tee hee. The whole debate has been fairly entertaining. Let’s do it again sometime. 😉


The fourth page of the “Gears” minicomic is now available when you vote for Messenger!

As always, previous pages of this minicomic are archived on the forum. You need to be a registered member to view them!

What else is new this week? Not much. I’ve made a few relatively unimportant changes to the site, like making it a 3-column layout to eliminate the clutter in the sidebar. I’ve also started watermarking all the comic pages. Not because I think anyone is necessarily going to steal them, but it’s one of those things I sort of feel like I should have been doing from the beginning. At least they’ll be sort of dated now, and if anyone ever “borrows” one of them, it’ll at least have a link back to where it came from. Whatever. :V

I’ve been doing a mini ad-blitz lately to try and bring more readers to the site. Traffic is definitely up, so if you’re reading this and you’re new, welcome! I hope you’ll stick around. On the other hand, if you’re already a regular reader, maybe you’ll consider passing the comic along to some of your friends? Pointing in the general direction of the Promote page, hint hint. :B

Lastly, on a completely unrelated note, go download this and listen to it. It’s free and free music is good, right? I have been a huge Nine Inch Nails nerd since forever, so I’m finding How to Destroy Angels pretty interesting and I’ve been listening to it all weekend. On top of that, I’m a big fan of the way they’ve started releasing a lot of their new music for free with the option to buy a hard copy, so I’m interested in supporting that if possible. It’s a bit like the way webcomics are distributed, when you think about it – you can read the comic for free online, but occasionally there are books or other extra physical goodies available for a small amount. At any rate, I’d like to see more music available this way someday, so I’m all for that. Vote with your wallet. :V

That’s all for now, comic readers! Thanks for checking in and I’ll see you next Monday for the beginning of Chapter Eight!

Catching Up

Catching Up published on No Comments on Catching Up

One more page to go and I’m back to where I “should” be with comics, hooray!

In addition to that, I’ve been doing a little general maintenance in my spare time and the following pages have been updated:

  • Q & A: Old answers updated, new questions added, and added a form for quick and easy question asking!
  • Links: New links added, as well as a new link section for comics and art resources.
  • Feeds: a new page for all things feedy. Quick RSS links for Google, Yahoo!, AOL and other popular feed readers, as well as Twitter and E-mail updates!
  • Sketchblog! Back before I moved, I started up a little sketchblog for miscellaneous drawings. Then I moved, and never had time to do anything with it. Now I do have time, and I’m back to posting once in a while!

I’ve been playing around with offering advertising on the site in order to help make it more self-sufficient. The ad provider I have chosen will display some graphic ads in addition to text ads. If at any point, the ads become too obnoxious or if they are offensive, please do not hesistate to contact me so I can take care of the problem immediately! Although the ads are important to help keep the site running, my readers are more important and your opinion matters. I’ve also added a page about buying ads on the site, should anyone run across this who wants to or something.

I also wanted to thank the batch of new followers I’ve acquired this week on Twitter! It’s been Follow Bug Week or something, I swear. Might I point you in the direction of Messenger’s facebook fan page as well?

Don’t forget the offer for extra pages that’s going on this month, and the new donation wallpaper that’s now available!

Now, to blow off the rest of my weekend playing Pokemon Platinum… Anyone up for trades? ;D
